@ChromiumDev Don't ... 🤢

In France ChatGPT is pronounced the same as 'Chat, j'ai pété' which means 'Cat, I have farted'. Which seems to sum the whole thing up pretty neatly.

@rupertdance I just did this too! And hahahahha!

@LurkLethoceris @1goodtern Thank you, was unaware this was possible… and yikes!

[Edward Cant @OpticSwerve]

@ToshiAkima Thanks, now I'm hungry :) Appreciate all the work you do and share. Your Twitter advice has been invaluable to our family.

[Edward Cant @OpticSwerve]

@JeffYackley @TRyanGregory Oh yeah, that could be better... Legend-in-progress :)

@Una @argyleink Thank you @argyleink, that is impressively comprehensive, it took two sittings for me. And thank you @una... I missed this the first time round, plus for all the other work you do.

This pattern makes so much sense!

@AlecMuffett @WolfieChristl Thank you both for giving it a shot :P I historically share a lot of Wolfie's perspectives. I have recent experience pushing privacy + accessibility in a growing company dealing with sensitive data, so I appreciate Alec's perspective more and more. Super frustrating either way.

[Edward Cant @OpticSwerve]

@AlecMuffett @WolfieChristl I follow you both on Twitter for good reason. There may have been a missed opportunity here. I think Wolfie was more likely acknowledging your credentials and asking for your viewpoint instead of questioning them. There is definitely value in that convo...

@keithclarkcouk Happy to help, enjoy Eleventy! I've found it a lot of fun to work with :)

[Edward Cant @OpticSwerve]

@PrivacyMatters I absolutely hate this dark pattern. Same preference.

@hypervisible While likely true right now, it’s important to remember that the current hardware is just a stepping stone. When the experience is better than Zoom… Facebook’s head start will be hard to claw back. It’s a long term bet, we need to consider that it might work out.

[Edward Cant @OpticSwerve]

@Min75Re Haha :) Looks like I'm going to have to make that one sooner rather than later. Thanks for the offer, most of it is just tedious article hunting. If you spot anything good feel free to tag it!

[Edward Cant @OpticSwerve]

@nathie I also thought this was a good idea a few years ago. Even made a cheesy website. It just makes sense... https://t.co/CkeJcINCRb

@Ben_Ripley42 Ffs Ben, just as I’m checking twitter with a bowl of porridge… :)

@WIRED 'Opt Out From Data Brokers'... Considering the number of trackers on this article, that includes visiting Wired's website.
